When this you see, remember me. Julia is mine own peculiar. I cannot show the love I O. We strangely met, and so do many, But now as true as ever any. 1658. As we begun, so let’s continue. My beloved is mine, and I am hers. True blue will never stain. 1653. Against thou goest, I will provide another. 1658. In loving thee, I love myself. 1658. Let him never take a wife, That will not love her as his life. A heart content cannot repent. I do not repent I gave consent. No gift can show the love I owe. What the heart saw the love hath chosen. Love one little, but love one long. Love him who gave thee this ring of gold, ’Tis he must kiss thee when thou art old. This circle, though but small about, The devil, jealousy, will keep out. If I think my wife is fair, What need other people care? 1653. God’s appointment is my contentment. Love, I like thee; sweet, requite me. With heart and hand at your command. My heart in silence speaks to thee, Though absence barrs tongue’s liberty. Faithful ever: deceitful never. I like, I love as turtle dove. As gold is pure, so love is sure. Despise not mee: y^t joyes in thee. If you deny, then sure I dye. Your right is my delight. As true, bee just. No better smart shall change my heart. This ring is a token I give to thee, That thou no tokens do change for me. My dearest Betty is good and pretty. 1658. I did commit no act of folly, When I married my sweet Molly. 1658. ’Tis fit no man should be alone, Which made Tom to marry Joan. 1658. Sue is bonny, blythe, and brown; This ring hath made her now my own. 1658. Like Phillis there is none: She truly loves her Choridon. 1658. My life is done when thou art gone. 1653. This hath no end, my sweetest friend: Our loves be so, no ending know. God send her me my wife to be. As God decreed so we agreed. Take hand and heart, I’ll ne’er depart. Love and dye in constancy. A virtuous wife that serveth life. As long as life y^r loving wife. I will be yours while breath endures. Love is sure where faith is pure. A virtuous wife doth banish strife. God did forsee we should agree. Love me, and be happy. None can prevent the Lord’s intent. Virtue surpasses riches. Let virtue rest within thy breast. Time lesseneth not my love. Joye without end. Let lykinge last. This and giver are thine for ever. Think on mee. Let love increase. Thou art my star, be not irregular. 1653.[396] Without thy love I backward move. 1613. Thine eyes so bright are my chief delight. 1653. This intimates true lovers’ states. 1653. Thou wert not handsome, wise, but rich; ’Twas that which did my eyes bewitch. 1658.[397]
